You can usually find your warning triangle in a compartment on the left side of your boot. On some older cars you might also find it in the tailgate or on top of the reserve wheel under the boot.

Sometimes the warning triangle and first aid kit come together in a compact combi-pack. Then the warning triangle will be in a red tube in the first aid bag.

Since the position of the warning triangle varies from car to car, you should read the manual and memorize where the first aid kit and warning triangle are stashed in your car, before you get into an accident, so that you don’t have to waste time searching.
